Queen Bey rolled out the revamped track, which features an updated instrumental. “You can be a sweet dream or a beautiful nightmare,” she sings, just as on the original. “Either way I don’t wanna wake up from you.”
It is unclear why ‘Yoncé opted to bless the world with this remix. The original “Sweet Dreams” reached No. 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 after it was released nearly 10 years ago, as part of 2008’s I Am…Sasha Fierce, but the album’s anniversary won’t arrive until November.
I Am…Sasha Fierce featured a bevy of hits from Queen Bey, including “If I Were a Boy,” “Single Ladies (Put a Ring On It),” “Diva,” “Halo,” and “Ego.”
Bey hasn’t dropped an album since 2016’s LEMONADE. However, she has been active of late, collaborating with the likes of Eminem, Ed Sheeran, and J Balvin. This April, she is set to headline Coachella.
